Meng Hongwei: Head of Interpol reported missing by his wife

French investigators have launched a probe into the "alarming" disappearance of Hongwei Meng, the Chinese president of Interpol, French media reported Friday. The Interpol head travelled to China at the end of September.

"An investigation has been opened by French police about the disappearance of the Chinese president of Interpol", a French official told ABC News.

Hongwei, 64, was elected president of Interpol in November 2016.

"He left Lyon for China last week".

But, Hatton notes, Meng's situation is unusual because his wife reported him missing so quickly.

While there are no public allegations against him, Meng, a member of the ruling Communist Party, likely worked closely with former security chief and Politburo Standing Committee member Zhou Yongkang, who is now serving a life sentence for corruption.
